Moin,

und das ganze Gerödel muss man von HAND übertragen? Jede einzelne reservierte IP für MAC?

Mir ist eigentlich nicht langweilig...

I'm on 26.7.3 and need to disable a FW rule, but I don'T see any option to do so unter "FW rules". Just need this rule disabled, no time for playing arround with stuff this morning. Help!

Rookie! :-p

But thanks a lot, too. :-)  Although I never got involved. To many other things arround and not really much I could help anyways.

srsly? You want to have this on your LAN? Together with office Windows PC and some DVR and expose all of them to the interwebs?

Why use a "firewall" in the first place? Get a switch and done. Don't expect it will take longer than a few minutes and all your network is compromised.

Have you tried spoofing the Cisco WAN MAC to your sense WAN?

Hi!

Old topic, I know, but comes up with interwebs search for opnsense firewall migration, so:

Haven't moved to new firewall rules, due to lack of time to wrap my head around the process. So at this point, what is the recommendation:

Migrate on 26.1.latest or wait till 26.7 arrives and migrate in fall?

Thanks in advance!

...I see stuff with WG tunnels (non-connecting, stopping randomly, not starting services on reboot) which shows no pattern or is not related to any changes at the endpoints. There is something weird going on.

Sometimes a restart of the service resolves it, sometimes a reboot is needed. On an ancient pfsense I have to re-install (!) the WG plugin (via another, working WG tunnel to another opnsense, really scary if you are remote...) to make a specific tunnel to an opnsense come up again from time to time.

AX210 should work in 14.3

Hello!

First of all: No, it's not me. I learned my lessons on BSD and wifi ;-). So, I'm asking for a ...friend (kind of). Really! :-D

He wants to run an Intel AX210 on his protectli with 26.1.latest. I warned, anyways...

I found this here:

Is there any hope anytime soon (26.6 maybe?) this will work in AP mode on his OPNsense?

Have this cron job for DNS-resolution for stale WG tunnels for years, working fine in general. But not in this case. Only wa to resolve after reboot: Obtain a fresh WAN IP (DHCP) by changing MAC of WAN interface. Otherwise this one specific tunnel won't come back after reboot. Very, very, very annoying. Had been doing fine for years.

How about "restoring" a custom config.xml with serial console enabled and other parts of the .xmp reset to your favourite state and reboot?

Nice there, lot's of nice people. But reminds me a lot of dark times now. Soccer vs. Olympia, you know...

Listen to old, white men, from time to time. Not tooooo often, but sometimes:
